Deep Sea Chase - A Shadow Puppet Play

If you read this blog regularly, you know that I am a BIG fan of Kiwi Crate.  It's a company that puts together everything we need to do a really fun craft including the directions.  Then they send it to us in a shoebox.  A new one each month.  I love it.  Before I go any further, if this sounds like a dream come true to you, you can get $10 off your first order by clicking here.  (Plus I get a $10 off coupon as well!)  Anyway...the most recent Kiwi Crate provided the opportunity for the boys to make shadow puppets.  SO much fun!

This all happened last week.  The boys made their puppets and then they put on a show for us. It was precious.  Here are some pictures.

Luke told me what to write.  Pretty cute.

The ticket takers outside "The Theatre"

Before the show, taking off their hats to show that they are no longer The Ticket Takers. Now they are The Actors.

It's a shark!

Watch out, little fish!

The puppets after the show

The boys share the fun with Daddy after the show.
For the record, Deep Sea Chase lasted about twenty minutes and mostly involved the shark chasing and eating all the other characters, including Paul himself who stood up to cast his shadow on the wall.  It was awesome.  We love Kiwi Crate.
